Yup; playing with Windows 8.1 and still have the issues with the Realtek network driver there.

Downloaded and installed driver mentioned.

Working!

This is great news!

I have a few of the Jogglers (> 10) running XP SP3 and they are all utilizing the Asix USB NIC. With this "fix" I can reconnect the wireless interface such that I can utilize both and utilize the the Realtek Gb connection which is integrated to the Joggler.

Playing more yesterday with the new / old Realtek NIC driver in Wintel.

It loads up fine with no hardware error. I could get it to work by loading up the regular Realtek driver over it.

That said it survives reboots as long as I keep the Joggler plugged in to power supply.

If I unplug the Joggler and cold boot it with the Realtek driver (currently posted on the Realtek driver page); then the hardware error comes back. I then load up the above mentioned driver and reinstall the new Realtek driver and all is well until the next cold boot up.

Is there some setting for the above mentioned driver that will make it stick on a cold boot up and work?

On the Openframe 2 devices I did find xp drivers for the BCM combo bluetooth and wireless pcie card and they are working well wirelessly connected. These include a "USB" driver for the DECT chip which really isn't utilized.

Please, can you upload these drivers (BCM Wireless and USB DECT chip)? I cant find them.
